A data quality assessment feedback session is held at Muhoroni Sub-County Hospital in Kisumu County. Tupime Kaunti aims to increase availability of high-quality data in focus counties. Photo credit: USAID KENYA TUPIME KAUNTI Kenya has made significant progress in devolving its health system, bringing management authority and resources closer to the communities served, empowering county health management teams, and fostering greater flexibility to meet local needs. To support this shift, functioning outcome measurement, learning and accountability (MLA) systems at county level are essential. However, the counties have inadequate capacity to regularly collect, analyze, and use data. Tupime Kaunti is a USAID-funded program that contributes to the Kenya Health Sector Monitoring and Evaluation (M&E) Framework’s goal of one functional, sector-wide M&E system for improved decision-making, transparency, and accountability in health. The program works with county governments to strengthen outcome MLA systems to provide quality data and synthesized information for planning, implementation, policy development, and decision-making. Tupime Kaunti works in 12 counties, focusing its support on HIV; malaria; reproductive, maternal, newborn, child, and adolescent health; child protection; and COVID-19 programs. OUR WORK Tupime Kaunti activities are structured around increasing the leadership, management, and technical capacity of county governments to use MLA systems effectively and increasing the availability, quality, analysis, and use of health data. The program implements a comprehensive strategy of six interdependent technical approaches to improve MLA outcomes: ensuring effective links between focus counties, the national Ministry of Health, and implementing partners; assessing and monitoring the improvements of county MLA systems; fostering coordination, engagement, and partnerships to achieve MLA county ownership and ensure that investments are sustained; building and sustaining county capacity to implement and use MLA systems; strengthening the foundation of MLA systems through policies, systems, and guidelines; and using data to improve health programs and outcomes.

    CHANGE-DETECTION IN WESTERN KENYA – THE DOCUMENTATION OF FRAGMENTATION AND DISTURBANCE FOR KAKAMEGA FOREST AND ASSOCIATED FOREST AREAS BY MEANS OF REMOTELY-SENSED IMAGERY T. Lung, G. Schaab * Department of Geoinformation, Karlsruhe University of Applied Sciences, Moltkestr. 30, D-76133 Karlsruhe, Germany, [email protected] KEY WORDS: Remote Sensing, Multisensor Imagery, Landsat, Classification, Land Cover, Change-Detection, GIS ABSTRACT: In order to understand causes and effects of disturbance and fragmentation on flora and fauna, a time series on land cover change is needed as basis for the BIOTA-East Africa project partners working in western Kenya. For 7 time steps over the past 30 years Land- sat data were collected for Kakamega Forest and its associated forest areas. Preprocessing involved georeferencing and radiometric corrections. In a first step the time series is evaluated via a threshold analysis distinguishing between “forest” and “non-forest”. Even though a temporally changing pattern of forest losses and replanting is observed, in total no major change in forest-covered area is revealed. Therefore, a supervised multispectral classification is performed distinguishing between classes at the ecosystem level. Ground truthing for the historical imagery is done with the help of maps showing vegetation types or land cover. Actual land cover verification is based on amateur photographs taken from an aeroplane as well as on terrain references. For classification the maxi- mum-likelihood decision rule is applied considering bands 3, 4, 5, 7 plus 7/2 for TM/ETM+ imagery and 1, 2, 3 and 4 for MSS-data, repectively. If available, scenes from both the rainy and dry seasons are made use of.
